COPY
This menu allows you to
copy all or part of any
track to another track.
You can also use it to
copy portions of the
entire song, (all 16
tracks) to a different part
of the same song or even
to a different song.
Another function of the COPY menu is to repeat a section
recorded in the same track. For example, if youve recorded
a 4-measure phrase, (like a drum track) which you would
like to be repeated 50 times, you can do this easily with the
COPY function.
Repeating a phrase within a single track
This simply requires marking the section of the track where
the material you want is located and then copying it to the
following section of the same track.
For example, if youve recorded a 4-measure drum track in
track 1 and you like it be repeated 50 times, first select the
track on the left side and then set FROM LOC and TO LOC
to mark the section of the track where the data is to be
copied from. Assuming the recorded data is in the first 4
measures, set FROM LOC to 1 and TO LOC to 4.
Now well set the START LOCATOR to 5, (the empty measure
which follows the recorded data). This will make one copy,
(a total of 8 measures  the original 4 measures plus one
copy of it). Now to create 50 measures, simply set the
COPY TIMES parameter to 49.
Make sure that the destination track is the same as the
original. You should see TRACK 1 TO 1.
Now press ENTER to execute the operation.
